Merry Christmas!

Christmas waves a magic wand over this world, and behold, everything is softer and more beautiful.  ~Norman Vincent Peale

Christmas is forever, not for just one day,
for loving, sharing, giving, are not to put away
like bells and lights and tinsel, in some box upon a shelf.
The good you do for others is good you do yourself…
~Norman Wesley Brooks, “Let Every Day Be Christmas,” 1976

I wish we could put up some of the Christmas spirit in jars and open a jar of it every month.  ~Harlan Miller

A Christmas candle is a lovely thing;
It makes no noise at all,
But softly gives itself away.
~Eva Logue

Oh, for the good old days when people would stop Christmas shopping when they ran out of money.  ~Author Unknown

At Christmas play and make good cheer,
For Christmas comes but once a year
~Thomas Tusser
